Discover the Secrets of the Seasons with Tristan Gooley
Explore the seasons through the prism of nature's clues and signs with the help of natural navigator and ‘Sherlock Holmes of Nature’, Tristan Gooley. The bestselling author of 'How to Read a Tree' and 'The Walker’s Guide' will reveal the little-known gems to look for each month in this richly illustrated talk.
The Hidden Seasons shows us how to read the clues most miss and inspires us to explore nature’s signs for ourselves, giving fascinating insights into our turning year.
🌸 Spring unveils a vibrant world of wildflower signs, unique cloud formations, and quirky animal behaviour.
🌞 Summer offers coastal secrets, astronomical marvels, and mysterious patterns in the grass.
🍂 Autumn invites us to interpret leaf changes, scent trails, and the fascinating language of fungi.
❄️ Winter deepens our understanding of snow, starlore, and unveils surprising clues – even indoors. The seasons will never look, sound or smell the same again!
The Hidden Seasons is published by Hodder & Stoughton in hardback on 18th September, so our event is extra special, marking publication day!
